Re: Is it safe to use contact lens cleaning solution that expired?

I was helping my mother in law clean her house one day and I found a bottle of contact lense solution that was 10 yrs past the experation so I threw it out. Boy did she throw a fit! " I could have still used that!" she said. umm yeah like 10 yrs ago. It's one thing to be frugal but I thought that was ridiculous. I would throw it away, your eyesight is very precious don't take chances....what if you got an infection in your eyes? I have had 2 and they are not fun!

Re: Is it safe to use contact lens cleaning solution that expired?

I once had a bottle that was expired. It would irritate my eyes... I couldn't figure out what it was.. I thought it was my contacts until I changed contacts and realized it was still doing it. Then I looked at the expiration and I think it had only expired about a month or so. I immediately threw it away and got new solution. I think if you want to save money, just buy the walmart Equate version that is half the price of the Renu or other brand names. They do the same thing
